Make a difference in a child's life while leaving a legacy. Purchase an engravable block that is set within the pillars of the front entrance to the Kiwanis Park.

Each block costs $125 and is a permanent legacy. The park is at the corner of N. Elm Avenue and Blakely Street.

More than 7,300 children attended the Kiwanis Kids' Movies at the Michigan Theatre this summer. The Kiwanis Club of Jackson (with the Brooklyn Club) sponsored the $1 kids movies. Each week featured a different film. Kiwanians greeted families.
